weird posting time problem i realized that someone made a post and the time was 6:12 or something like that on the post, but it was still 6:09. i replied to the post and it read out 6:09 and was above the post i replied to. is there a time error on the site? just lettin you know, someone else noticed it to but no one posted about it in here so i figured id give a heads up.

It happens when the server clocks drift, since vBulletin is written to use the webserver time, instead of the database server time 
I have a cron job set up to sync the clocks once per hour.

I "touch" the servers on average 15-20 times per day, mostly just to make sure everything is running well. I look over a lot of logs, error reports, statistical reports, etc. as well. There's definitely a fair time investment, the site doesn't run itself
